Bubble | Sarah Morgan, Jordan Morris
Based on the smash-hit audio serial, Bubble is a hilarious high-energy graphic novel with a satirical take on the gig economy. Built and maintained by corporate benevolence, the city of Fairhaven is a literal bubble of safety and order (and amazing coffee) in the midst of the Brush, a harsh alien wilderness ruled by monstrous Imps and rogue bands of humans. Humans like Morgan, whos Brush-born and Bubble-raised and fully capable of fending off an Imp attack during her morning jog. Shes got a great routine goingshe has a chill day job, she recreationally kills the occasional Imp, then she takes that Imp home for her roommate and BFF, Annie, to transform into drugs as a side hustle. But cracks appear in her tidy life when one of those Imps nearly murders a delivery guy in her apartment, accidentally transforming him into a Brush-powered mutant in the process. And when Morgans company launches Huntr, a gig economy app for Imp extermination, she finds herself press-ganged into kicking her stabby side job up to the next level as she battles a parade of monsters and monstrously Brush-turned citizens, from a living hipster beard to a book club hive mind.

This book has me cracking up the whole way through. Apparently the graphic novel is based on a podcast, which I‘ll now undoubtedly check out. Not bad for a random grab at the library!

The love for funky colourful scifi adventures in graphic novels continues! Admittedly, this one has less queer rep, and no non-binary to speak of, more contemporary relevance to those currently in their 20s, seeking a chance to laugh at the quandries of the day: gig economy, dating, what passes for cool, how lame/evil the establishment and/or older generation can be. A bit of Buffy the Vampire Slayer vibes in here, which, as an OLD, I appreciate.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I picked this up because my trusted friend @JGadz11 sent me a pic of some 311 references.🤘🏼 Hell, yes! Sold. This is a clever play on gig economy. Instead of ride sharing or food delivery, the focus is an app for killing mutants that enter the “Bubble” from the outside. An entertaining story with cool artwork and likable characters, but what I loved most were the 90s pop culture references. And satire is my literary jam. A fun read!

TracyReadsBooks Have you read Crowded? Great comic about the gig economy—main character hires a bodyguard when she becomes the target of a crowd funded assassination attempt. I really enjoyed it. 2y
britt_brooke @TracyReadsBooks No; I‘ll have to look for that one - thanks! 2y
Cinfhen Don‘t think this is my “literary jam” 😄💚 2y

This was such a fun read! The podcast was so funny and unique, I was excited that they made it into a graphic novel. The art is absolutely gorgeous!
It's set on an alien world where most of society lives under the safety of corporate "bubbles". Morgan grew up in the wild Brush and now freelances for the app Huntr to take down any imps who infiltrate the city. It's a hilarious take on the gig economy, with crazy monsters and great friendships.

A really fun graphic novel about people living in biodomes on a dangerous alien planet. I didn't even realized this was based on the podcast until halfway through, and, having never listened to it, I still thoroughly enjoyed it and found it easy to follow the story. A fun, funny, adventurous sci-fi graphic novel that is definitely PG-13 at least.

I too would pause in the middle of a boss fight to coo over cute goats, so I get it, Mitch.

I'm back again after another long hiatus!

I just celebrated my 40th Birthday yesterday, so here's my birthday haul!

The Mabinogion was purchased from my Wish list and the others I bought today when my love cut me loose in B&N with a special birthday budget.

Then I tore through Bubble the moment we got home. Overall, a pretty good birthday 😁
